350 miles above earth, the crew of the space shuttle Atlantis is busy giving the Hubble Telescope a tune-up. One of the astronauts is also carrying with him a symbol of the Jewish religion, designed by a San Francisco artist. It's a replica of something carried into space by his friend, one of the astronauts who died when the space shuttle Columbia broke apart on its return home in 2003.
